Interior

2017 SLE with 50k miles. No rattles or noticeable squeaks. My 2006 before that had an amazing interior as well. Held up very well for over 200k miles.

my 2015 SLT 2500 HD was the same. interiors are the same. I should have learned my lesson with that truck. the GM's look so good though

See attached photo.....-21 Celsius and no creaking or cracking from the interior...I've had my truck for two years and the temperatures go from +40C to -40C..

I guess I'm lucky??

I've also not heard anyone I else know locally with these problems.

A spray can of silicone spray works marvels! Every car or truck of any make that I have ridden in in the last 30 years has squeaks and rattles.

You must have the most perfect truck ever built. Perfect transmission, perfectly silent interior, perfectly seamless AFM. You should never sell that truck. Or you just don’t notice what your truck is actually doing underneath you. It’s fine either way, I wasn’t complaining. It is a well known fact that plastic and other interior pieces will creak against each other. I hear it in my dads $200,000 Mercedes and $80,000 Infiniti and $80,000 Audi Q7. Like I said, it’s part of the deal.

I’d expect a rattle free experience from a Rolls Royce, other than that, most vehicles will develop some noise while driving at some point.

Thank you. Couldn't agree more. Some people are just oblivious to these things, and others notice them. Sounds like the OP is one that notices these things, and he will also notice it in a new 2019, I am sad to say.

Some people also don't have them....

It's not impossible to not experience these things. Could be lucky enough not to...

yep I do, and it bothers me, unfortunately.

It just seems like this new truck rattles way more than any other truck I have owned (and that is a lot).

all of the rattles are from the center console and the trim around the center of the dash. I can push on the dash or grab the sides of the console and make them stop. The Ford I sold to get this truck was not like this, but it had other issues.

My 2015 is one of the quietest vehicles I have owned. It did have some minor dash squeaks but I didn't want the dealer tearing into things since they don't always get it back together correctly. There are TSB's online that show areas where the Techs are supposed to put flocking tape to eliminate dash squeaks. Just buy yourself a roll of this:

https://www.amazon.com/J-V-Converting-FLOCK-1-BLK05833-Flocking/dp/B07J34NTWJ/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1542654513&sr=8-4&keywords=flocking+tape

in whatever size you like to work with. When you hear a dash squeak remove the affected piece, place small strips of the tape near all the clips and areas where the panel fits against other pieces of the dash, and reinstall the piece. This takes care of 99% of the squeaks the first time.
